Embodiment
Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings, will describe formation device of the present invention and method of operation in detail with reference to embodiments of the invention.In the following description, the theme that defines in specification (such as detailed structure and assembly) is provided to help understanding fully of the present invention, and those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize under the situation that does not deviate from scope and spirit of the present invention, can carry out various changes and modification for theme described here.Be removed so that prevent from unnecessarily to obscure the present invention in this detailed description that well known to a person skilled in the art function and configuration of incorporating into.
The communication link of visible light communication system uses the equipment with visibility such as light-emitting diode (LED), therefore makes the user with the naked eye to check.The invention provides the visible light communication system and the method that are used to transmit and receive data, wherein the visibility of link can use visible frame engine (VFE) to express in this type of visible light communication system.
Fig. 3 is the block diagram that is used to the device that transmits and receive data according to an embodiment of the invention in visible light communication system.With reference to figure 3, devices in accordance with embodiments of the present invention comprises visible light communication (VLC) transceiver 310, VLC controller 320 and console controller 330.
VLC transceiver 310 uses such as the luminaire of light-emitting diode (LED), laser diodes (LD) etc. or such as the optical receiving device of photodiode etc., thereby receive operating period it then the signal of telecommunication is outputed to VLC controller 320 by using optical receiving device that the visible light that receives is converted to the signal of telecommunication, perhaps during transmit operation it by the electrical signal conversion using luminaire and will comprise information as visible light signal to be used for the transmission of visible light signal.
Console controller 330 is connected to VLC controller 320 by using CPU (CPU) interface.Generally be installed in the console controller 330 with control system such as the operating system of Windows or Linux, and console controller 330 comes executive communication by the device driver that is used for VLC controller 320, the agreement that is used for visible light communication and visible light application.
VLC controller 320 comprises transmission/reception (TRx) buffer 323,8B/10B encoder/decoder (En/Dec) 322, serializer/deserializer (Ser/Des) 321, control register 324, and visible frame engine (VFE) 325, with executive control operation, thus during visible light communication with the visible frame of predetermined gap (or at interval) output the following stated.
TRx buffer 323 is that storage sends data or receives the memory space of data to be used to communicate by letter.
The format conversion that 8B/10B encoder/decoder 322 will send data is the form that is suitable for 8B/10B.
Serializer/deserializer 321 conversion serial signal and parallel signals.
Control register 324 receives the required information of control VLC controller 320 and handles this information from console controller 330, or provides control VLC controller 320 required information.
VFE 325 produces visible frame and sends visible frame to guarantee the visibility of link on communication link.
In the visible light link, the management visible frame, as described below.
Can be on communication link two-way transmission visible frame, therefore can send visible frame regardless of the transmission of Frame.Also promptly, even receiver is receiving data, transmitter also sends visible frame, guarantees visibility thus.
Visible frame has lower priority than Frame, thereby under the request that the data from console controller 330 send, although VLC controller 320 is sending visible frame, also stop the transmission of visible frame at once, send the Frame of console controller 330 requests then.The transmission and the reception programme of visible frame are described in more detail referring now to accompanying drawing.
Fig. 4 illustrates the flow chart of the operation of the transmission visible frame in visible light communication system according to an embodiment of the invention.With reference to figure 4, in step 410, initiate communication, the form and the transmission cycle of visible frame wherein is set.In step 420, determine whether the Frame or the control frame that will send.If determine Frame or the control frame that existence will send in step 420, then process advances to step 430 and advances to step 450 then to send Frame or control frame.In step 450, determine whether the Frame of transmission in step 430 or the transmission of control frame are finished.If the transmission of specified data frame or control frame is finished in step 450, then process advances to step 440 and send visible frame with form and transmission cycle according to the visible frame that is provided with in step 410, advances to step 460 then.If the transmission of specified data frame or control frame is not finished in step 450, then process advances to step 430 to continue to send Frame or control frame.
If the definite Frame or control frame that will not send in step 420, then process advances to step 440 and send visible frame with form and transmission cycle according to the visible frame that is provided with to the other side in step 410, advances to step 460 then.In step 460, determine whether from console controller to produce about the transmission of visible frame cease and desist order (stopping to send VF).Stop to send the VF order if determine to have produced in step 460, then process is come step 420.Stop to send the VF order if determine not produce in step 460, then process is come step 440.Afterwards, if whole communication is finished, then VFE is terminated.
Fig. 5 illustrates the Data Receiving operational flowchart in visible light communication system according to an embodiment of the invention.With reference to figure 5, when at step 510 received frame, process advances to step 520 to determine whether the frame that receives is visible frame.Here, the type of frame can be determined from the header information of this frame.If the frame that receives in step 520 is a visible frame, then process advances to step 530.Because the visible frame that receives not is actual requirement the in the communication, so it is deleted and be not delivered to reception buffer in step 530.If the frame that receives in step 520 is not a visible frame, then process advances to step 540.Because the frame that receives is the element that signal post needs, so send it to reception buffer so that the processed agreement that is delivered to then in step 540.
With reference to the accompanying drawings, will carry out now about the explanation of the method for the method of structure visible frame and transmission visible frame in visible light communication system according to an embodiment of the invention.
Fig. 6 explanation is used for the exemplary frame structure that data send according to an embodiment of the invention in visible light communication system.As shown in Figure 6, the frame in visible light communication system according to an embodiment of the invention comprises: as the Frame of the Payload of the data that comprise the actual information that will send, have the digital lead code, indication of function of beginning that clock and data recovery (CDR) for receiving terminal provides signal and designation data frame for affirmation (ACK) frame of the response of the other side's transfer of data, about the control frame of communication link control and the visible frame that the visibility of communication link is provided during visible light communication.
Utilize the method that in visible light communication system, transmits and receive data according to an embodiment of the invention, can need not to send signal continuously by the data link of using above-mentioned visible frame realization to have visibility in transmission and reception period.
